Small brochure about the exhibition held May to October 2015. Described as a “Dadaist love story,” Une danse des bouffons (or A jester’s dance) is Dzama’s fictionalized account of the romantic affair between artists Marcel Duchamp and Maria Martins. Featuring Kim Gordon and Hannelore Knuts (both playing the role of Martins in alternating versions of the film) and a surreal panoply of elements derived from art, dance, and chess, Mischief Makes a Move is an exploration of the mythological figure known as the Trickster, whose pranks frequently blur the line between good and evil. - from the brochure and the web site.
